Speaking Trance With Manuel Le Saux


After playing his debut gig in South Africa we thought it only be right to catch up with Manuel Le Saux and find out about his experience.

 Hello, Manuel for taking time out to do this interview with us . Its such a huge pleasure: )


MANUEL LA SAUX INTERVIEW 2014

How are you doing today and what’s your choice of drink?

Hello guys, thank you for this interview. I’m doing great as always.

My choice of drink: redbull!

1.      To start of can you tell us a little about who you are on a non-musical front?

I am just a man like others. I have my own private life, my job, my friends. I like spending time with my friends and have fun with them. As you know I am also a fan of football and videogames.


2.      Just recently you made your debut appearance in South Africa. What was the experience like for you?
Playing for the first time in a country where you’ve never been before it’s always unique and exciting. So I came back home with good memories and I hope to come back again to SA.


3.      We hear the gig was absolutely insane, what blew you away about the South African crowd?

It was amazed that they danced my music till dawn without stopping.

4.      What was one lowlight of your time here in South Africa?

I was sad to leave because there I have found some new friends.


5.      Your tour in South Africa was to launch your compilation album Extrema Global. What's the initial feedback been like on it?

I didn’t expect so much appreciation from the people worldwide. It really surprised me.

6.      The album is one that deserves a place in every trance fans record collection. If you had to promote the album with one song featured on the album which track would it be and why.

Surely “Bushido”. I created this track putting a lot of my energy and it is going to be the first track of my next album.


7.      It’s not easy mixing a compilation album, what are some of the challenges you faced while mixing Extrema Global?

Mixing a compilation is always a challenge. Just think that you have 15 tracks to put together in 74 minutes and you have to mix the best part of these tracks cutting less possible.



8.      What advice do you have for people who are Afraid of 138?

People “afraid of 138” perhaps are not brave enough ;-) ….just kidding


9.      There’s been a lot of talk about the trance scene and the crowds. From the perspective of a Trance DJ, what would you say makes trance different from others in the electronic category in terms of the scene, events and crowd?

Trance music has experienced moments of ups and downs cause the influences of other genres and some people has misunderstood the real aspect of trance music. Trance music is unique in his genre. The scene and the events are always full of good vibes and the crowd expect a lot from a Trance DJ. If you are a trance lover you expect goosebumps, melodies, energy and many other feelings that only trance music can give you.


10.  We hear you are currently working on a new artist album, what can we expect from the album?

I’ll do my best to create another success, another “trance journey”. My fans expect a lot from me so I don’t want to disappoint them.


11.  With such a busy travelling schedule how do you schedule in studio time  and time to work on your artist album?  
My schedule is really tight so, even though sometimes I am very tired, I must find time for working on my new album. It’s my next goal so all my efforts are for it.


12.  Is there a release date planned for the album?

Not yet

13.  It’s currently DJ Mag Top 100 time, what are your views on the poll?

I stopped to look at this poll. Seems like “who pays the most, surely wins!”

14.  With everyone changing their style do you ever see yourself changing your style?

Never! but recently I appreciate some techno sounds.

15.  We are always on the look out for new talent, who are some producers/DJ who have blown you away lately.

Darren Porter and Lostly

16.  Do you have any last messages for your fans?

My message is: I am deeply grateful to my fans and to all the people behind the scene that still believe in me! Their support and faith in my hard work gives me the strength to go on. Make my fans happy during my live sets is the most important success for me!
